The Easter Bunny Is Making Healthier Choices These Days

The {Easter Bunny} is not one to talk.

E.B. has a sweet tooth like no other, loves to bake and can go through a box of Chewy Lemonheads in no time flat.

But, when it comes to filling baskets E.B. tries to make some better choices than just Peeps, Cadbury Creme Eggs, jelly beans, speckled robin’s egg malt balls, chocolate bunnies and bubble gum.

Generally, our Easter baskets are filled with useful goodies rather than a boatload of candy and little unnecessary toys.

Here are some suggestions for Easter basket stuffers with less sugar and less likely to end up on the floor after a day…..

Sunglasses for the upcoming summer months

Flip flops

Tooth brushes

Band-aids {our household goes through these like they’re goin’ out of style!}

Summer jammies

{both from oldnavy.com}

 

Reusable water bottles

Sugarless gum

{Washable} crayons or markers

Coloring books

Bubble bath {we don’t use this regularly so it’s a treat}

Of course, it’s OK to throw in a few Dum Dum lollipops or some chocolate eggs. We don’t want the Easter Bunny to be a total buzz kill.

After all, that’s why he put a new toothbrush in the basket!

Happy Hopping!
